Birth of Planet Earth | Planetarium Showcase
“Birth of Planet Earth” tells the twisted tale of our planet’s origins. Scientists now believe that our galaxy is filled with solar systems, including up to a billion planets roughly the size of our own. The film employs advanced, data-driven, cinematic-quality visualizations to explore some of the greatest questions in science today: How did Earth become a living planet in the wake of our solar system’s violent birth? What does its history tell us about our chances of finding other worlds that are truly Earth-like?
The show will include a live portion, including current night sky highlights and visual tours of incredible solar system features and the universe. Following the live portion of the show, the feature film will be presented on the dome theatre for a one-of-a-kind immersive experience.
